the maggai river the natives call it

the river of the crocodiles in cannibal

valley

less than a year ago it was only one of

africa's countless uncharted virtually

unexplored waterways

only the crocodiles disturbed its placid

waters

hundreds of them thousands

the maggai river was their lair

their stronghold

and they guided it savagely against

intrusion

but today into this wild domain

dominated for centuries by the

crocodiles

a tribe of colonists has come

civilization

along the river echoes the sound of axes

hewing timber for future homes

the sound of guns destroying the grim

guardians of the magi river

today the river is the life stream that

nourishes a new and flourishing colony

all members of the colony work

and they take precious minerals from the

mines

cobra and coffee and palm oil from the

plantations

furs ivory ebony

transport them down the river to the

colony's main settlement

less than a year ago this was only a

dream now it's a busy thriving community

well commissioner you satisfied with our

progress

it's unbelievable mr king in less than a

year all this

you've done a magnificent job not high

commissioner my people

come in

in accordance with our charter i've

prepared the quarterly report for the

government shall we go over it now

later mr king first there is a more

urgent matter oh yes the cobalt

naturally the government is concerned at

the delay in the first shipment

no nation can get along today without it

amazing isn't it the many use of cobalt

machine tools

delicate magnets electronics and in

radioactive form a cheap and effective

treatment for cancer it's used in

everything from vitamin b-12 and dental

bridge work to gun barrel linings and

jet aircraft engines and of more vital

importance than even uranium now mr king

the first shipment when may be expected

well our transportation system is still

rather primitive

but i think the first shipment should

arrive here in a few days hmm and i'd

better stay over i can accompany it on

down river to the government warehouse

on the coast

then your people will be paid the price

set by the government of course on

delivery

is

do not

obey me or turn

kill you drop your knife

put your hands up

now turn around

keep your hands up

who are you you're pretty who are you

uh

uh

uh

uh

he was dead when i found him that's all

i know you want us to believe you didn't

kill him

cox must have got him maybe

he's david rennie a friend of ours i

thought you'd killed him

is that why you tried to run me down

with your boat rovac thought you meant

to harm me

the warra is mr king's ward we have

orders to look out for i was on my way

to see mr king at the commissioner's

request and you have no objections to

letting him question you not at all in

fact i'm curious about a few things

myself for instance

you for one thing

and for another

this

and you saw no sign of the missing

cobalt ship or the colonists were

escorting it

not just the one man and we buried him

you're quite sure he was killed by

crocodiles i'm not quite sure

certainly you don't suspect rollback why

he's mr king's most trusted aide

he suspected me

i still do

you must forgive my ward

she's simply trying to provoke you

although i've educated her in european

ways there are times when our jungle

blood seems to assert itself

now the man you found there's every

reason to believe he was killed by

crocodiles the river is infested with

them but what happened to the others and

the cobalt we'll soon find out rovak

will organize a search party

i suggest you attend to that cut

show him to the guesthouse laura

we'd better radio government

headquarters

i hope you forgive us

rovak's always looking after me

i imagine you can take care of yourself

i can i was born in the jungle i often

go there alone and roback follows you

around on a motor boat

he was on his way to meet the cobalt

shipment

i guess that explains almost everything

doesn't

almost everything

crocs may be man-eaters but they don't

eat canoes or rafts or cobalt

they could overturn and sink canoes and

drafts and cobalt

maybe i'll let you know are you going

with rovex search party no i'm going

with kim

wait a minute

you meant to take care of things here

frankly i don't see how you can

accomplish any more than roll back but

since the commissioner seems to think

you can the government has the utmost

confidence in johnny mr king

and so if i and my people especially

robec otherwise i wouldn't have given

him the position formally held by my

brother your brother never mind

commissioner after all it's no secret

that arnold and i don't get along

well good luck good luck

where is his brother

king banished him from the colony he's

working as a laborer at the cobalt mine

maybe i better check on him you suspect

just about everybody don't you not

everybody

you mean only king is above suspicion no

only the crocs

my chauffeur seems to be in a hurry

goodbye commissioner bye

so

what happened

that's the slide accident

you get around don't you

do you find my presence so objectionable

no i want to talk to you

you've been hurt

just like your friend whose body i found

but the crocodiles went down the river

not all of them

better get your shirt off and i'll take

care of that there's a first aid kit in

my gear

thanks kimber we can use a fire to dry

our clothes

so there's little more i can tell you of

my guardian the colonists worshiped john

king

they'd give their lives for him

so would i

what caused the break between him and

his brother arnold's drinking mainly

unfortunately for rovak

yes

mr king expects big things of him like

finding a cobalt shipment

mr king is more concerned about finding

our missing colonists than the cobalt

most men are more concerned about cobalt

my guardian isn't like most men

nor are you

you still haven't asked why i followed

you

well why did you

civilized life bores me

i prefer the jungle

like you

hey take it easy

i'm sorry

i haven't any sense of humor

i guess it's my native blood

you're not a full native are you no only

on my mother's side

when my father left her she turned me

out into the jungle

mr king found me and adopted me your

mother what tribe was she from

i'd rather not talk about her

let's go for a swim

come on i won't let the crocodiles get

you

i'm not worried about them

tell the commissioner i'll be up at the

cobalt mine later where are you going

now back to the place where i found a

dead body i want to take a look around

there why what do you expect really are

you that anxious to get rid of me

oh

thanks i guess that makes us even even

yes i pulled you out of the river when

rovak ran you down with his motorboat is

that so

who are you arnold king

why did you run away i didn't want luora

and roback to see me they might tell my

dear brother i was not working at the

mine then you found dave rennie's body

yes i followed the cobalt shipment down

the river i thought something might

happen to it

but what did happen i don't know i was

too late to see

i was heading back for the mine i hurt

my leg

i think it's infected you got any sulfur

in my canoe it's not far away

all right let's forget about robec and

luora then and consider me the prime

suspect what would i do with a cobalt i

couldn't sell it to the government

there are other governments and a black

market for war materials okay that's a

point for you but there are a dozen men

escorting that shipment how could i

handle that many alone

maybe you had help not from the

colonists they despise me they think i'm

no good and a disgrace to that very

important brother of mine

i didn't mean the colonists who then you

think i've got the crocodiles working

for me

say now there's an idea

did you ever hear of a river tribe

called the shenzies sure they used to

practice cannibalism but they went away

from the river when the colonists came

they're supposed to have some uh kind of

power over crocodiles that's nonsense

it's just native talk

i think i can make it back to the mine

now why don't you try to find rover we

might see him on the way

how far are we from the mine we're about

halfway there

you think we better have some of our men

follow them

no not our men

well here we are at your mind

headquarters

so

so

oh hold on

oh you two men give the others a hand

with a new shaft i want it open before

the end of the week

i didn't know you were in charge here

the commissioner said that my brother

sent me here as a laborer to punish me

for being a bad boy

that's right he did

he thought a few months of lugging sacks

of iron ore around might make a man on

me

iron ore you mean cobalt don't you i

mean iron ore nobody suspected there was

anything else around here till i found

the crowball deposit you found it

i still haven't told my brother where

the richest vane is

that's why he has to let me be the boss

here

i see come on i'll show you the tunnel

is there a light in here yes it should

be a landing

stand back

kimber

oh fine

never mind i got another one

what's that

never mind what that is where does this

tunnel lead to it goes up to the surface

again down in the river

you mind telling me who or what we're

looking for don't you know no of course

not i'm completely in the dark so was i

when i was almost framed by one of those

well now wait a minute you don't think

that i had

you don't suppose you found the missing

cobalt do you i doubt it

it still doesn't prove that dave rennie

the man you found wasn't killed by

crocodiles both the club and the croc's

teeth would leave exactly the same marks

so how could you tell the difference

if your friend had been attacked by

crocs they would have eaten them alive

that could be besides there were a

couple of vines tied around a man's legs

looked like they'd been used to tie

stone weights to him you said looked

like you didn't actually find the

weights no must have broken loose and

you're still only guessing aren't you

at the moment yes

meanwhile we've got to get another load

of cobalt started down the river what

about the other one

we dragged the river near where renny's

body was found there's no cobalt on the

river bottom at that point what about

the missing colonists the rest of my men

are searching the jungle now

where how do i know i left them hours

ago i better go try and find them your

men might get lost too

what do you suppose he knows rover

only one thing for sure

you were with him in the mine shaft not

me there's another thing he knows that

there's some connection between the

crocodiles and the shinsy natives

there's no sign of rover yet

hey

where did this come from i don't know

who hit me

i don't know boss must have been that

champ

maybe it was

or was it

but the shenzies are primitive some say

even cannibals they were many years ago

but they don't practice it anymore

surely you don't think that's what

happened to the missing men but what

would they want with cobalt

maybe they want it for somebody else

throwback for instance

why wrote back

simply because you saw one of his men

cutting some vines same kind of vines i

found on the dead man

after what happened at the mind i should

think you would be more inclined to

suspect arnold please laura after all he

is my brother but don't you see he hates

you for having banished him from the

colony

he may hope by stealing the cobalt to

discredit you with the government if mr

king fails to deliver the cobalt the

government might have to take over here

why don't you take care of the next

shipment you and the commissioner good

idea that way we can keep an eye on both

rollback and your brother you will

accompany us

later i want to see if i can locate the

shenzies

very well i think you may be wasting

your time

just how do you expect to find the

shenzies

i don't i expect them to find me why

should they be looking for you i'm still

alive

i see you think there will be another

attempt to kill you don't you

perhaps

if you persist in taking foolish risks

hmm

all right let's go

go back

right

nothing yet

what time will arnold and the miners

pass by here with the shipment it won't

be long i delayed the loading to make

sure

go back here

go back here come in

still nothing

wow

right here

is

we'll have to let this shipment go

through mr king is handling himself with

the commissioner we're all set can't we

still try it no

no it's too risky

we'll have to tell our friends to sit

this one out

unless uh unless what

imagine johnny's surprised if the

shipment was attacked by

real crocodiles

me

say

how'd this get out here one of the

schenzies must have brought us they're

not that stupid ah they're crazy enough

to do anything come on

um

mm-hmm

so

so

relax mr king there won't be any

difficulty this trip i wonder

what's the matter he'd better take the

lead from here on arnold

why not you you lead everything else

please arnold don't start that again you

don't expect trouble do you with my dear

brother along it's not very likely and

why isn't it nobody dare make trouble

for you if they did you'd bore him to

death with one of your lectures

the incident young puppy how much longer

can you possibly tolerate him not much

longer i'm afraid

what's the matter

i don't know yeah we'd better use the

pedals and get over the bank where we

can fix this

foreign

so

oh

what a break we caught the cobalt too

throw a line on the barge and put it in

as soon as it goes around the bend

hey

so

foreign

i'm afraid you were right that's no use

no sign of my other man

look it's robot he's got the bark

but not the cobalt

there can't be any question now it's

been the crocodiles even you must admit

that in this case yes even so what

happened to the cobalt dumped off in the

river i guess all i know it was gone

when i found the barge how did you

happen to find a barge we saw it

drifting the overturned motorboat is

still downstream that's where you and

jason seem to hang out well i figured

there might be trouble and it was near

there the first shipment was attacked

how do you know that

well i don't for sure but it's not far

from where you found the body of david

renning no use he knows all the answers

roll back you and jason get some men at

the village see if you can find the

cobalt now that our boat's repaired

we'll get the barge and go back to mine

get another load ready

frankly i think you've only confused

matters by your suspicions there seems

no doubt that crocodiles have been

responsible for the attacks crocodiles

couldn't carry the cobalt away but the

shenzies could if they were around and i

think they are then why don't you find

them

i will

okay

hey

i thought you were up at the mine so to

drove i've been trailing him and i think

he's been trailing you seen any sign of

him

you know you act so guilty i sometimes

think you aren't pretty clever of me huh

what's got him so excited

i don't know

wow

too bad you killed him he might have

talked it's obvious enough the shenzies

have been attacking the cobalt shipment

disguises crocodiles but why for home

that's what he might have told us maybe

laura knows she's always around when

things happen i've been looking for mr

king

he's been gone so long i got worried

you're worried enough just to turn over

your canoe he turned it over i suppose

kimba watch this croc skin

go on where behind the rocks

this is their hideout i wonder why they

cleared up they must have heard your

shot

funny they left the cobble maybe

uh

you two eh i might have known only how'd

you get so chummy with a shenzhen i'm

part shenzi myself my mother was their

princess

these are my subjects

i'm a royal blood who's rollock they're

king

i don't think the shins will give you

enough time to figure that one out

the shenzies may wish to amuse

themselves first if they do don't

interfere

you know laura i've always been a little

afraid of you myself i wondered why

you'd been so discreet

i thought it was because of mr king

you'd better go on up to the mine now

i'll have my men start getting the

cobalt out of the cavern and don't

forget how mr king load all a high grade

ore this time

careful who are the commissioner

you're not worried about arnold are you

no i suppose not we were always more

like strangers and brothers

it's those men out there laura

they'd trust me they would die for me

perhaps they shall get the opportunity

rovak has already made the arrangements

with his government so soon in exchange

for the cobalt they will give you guns

planes and supplies

enough to make you ruler of the whole

jungle but haven't i enough power

already the colony but with a cobalt you

can turn your colony into an empire

for whom laura

for myself

or for you

for us both

oh

playful chaps are shenzhens aren't they

why don't you turn it loose robot and

get it over with i would if it were up

to me but the shenzhens want to have a

little fun while they're waiting waiting

for what the next cobalt shipment will

it make any difference to you

start loading your canoes how are we

going to handle the big shipment when we

get it just leave it on the bars

uh

sounds as though that heard of elephants

is still downriver i feel a lot better

if johnny were alone what do you suppose

happened to him and arnold

he probably took him on as well goose

chase after the shenzies

johnny could still be ryan about the

shenzies after all as he said crocodiles

couldn't have carried off that missing

cobalt don't worry rovak will find it

that's not too reassuring in view of

johnny suspicions of him nonsense

commissioner rovak would never do

anything but in the best interest of mr

king

isn't that so

i hope so laura

better get ready now

go on

looks like i won't have to cut it loose

doesn't it

now you can just watch

sorry i haven't time

you're a fool robec

whoever you're working for won't be

satisfied with a few barge loads of

cobalt you'll have to guarantee a steady

supply

there's plenty left at the mine one more

attack and the government will take over

the mine maybe they'll supervise it but

mr king will still be running it mr king

and laura

obviously

kimber get us loose

the spear pick it up

come on bring it over here

cut

them cut the ropes

looks like they've sent a copol down the

river already

let's look around and see if we can't

turn up something

come on

oh

quite a trap too bad it's not going to

work maybe it will what do you mean

we've got plenty of time to stop the

shipment if we let it go through they

might work that trap in reverse how

you'll see

guess we'll just have to wait till they

move out of our way that may mean hours

i'll try to drive them off

the sound of gunfire should make them

stampede it's too risky they might

charge us we'd better wait

we've wasted too much time already

better let me then you can cover me

the war

what happened to you i've been never

mind now who fired those shots i did

elephants were blocking the river

where's laura noir where is she i i

don't know what is all this what's wrong

luar and rovak they've been stealing the

cobalt not lora you must be mistaken

laura

the war is alive what do you mean

elephants can't open shoe buckles she's

going down river to warn rovak and

shenzi's we'd better tell my brother

that she's alive he'll be happy to hear

it not yet

what do you have in mind

let him keep believing she's dead that

way he won't do anything to help her in

rovac you don't really think he was

being used by the war that's what rovak

said he could have been lying my

brother's no fool she couldn't make him

do anything he didn't want to or maybe

he wanted to

that's impossible he's just too big a

man

cobalt would make him a much bigger man

look i have no reason to love him

my brother never does anything wrong he

can't he's just too cold-blooded could

be somebody warmed him up a little

okay we'll do it your way

this is all we could find

she's gone then

a way to die

now that she's gone and won't be able to

help you

isn't there something you'd like to tell

us

tell you what about you and laura

rovak

you know then

well it doesn't matter anyway now that

laura

what is this about you and luora and

rovak

they were working

for me

you but why

i

i loved laura

she wanted to be queen of a jungle

empire

rovak's government was to back me in

return for the cobalt

mr king you'll continue the rest of the

way down the river in my custody under

arrest

you were right i hope you've got a trick

up your sleeve for rollback

i think i have come on

wait what's wrong what's the matter

johnny and arnold are with the

commissioner

and they know we're here we'd better

pull out no

king has the biggest shipment of all

why leave without it it'll mean a fight

and king might get hurt does that

concern you so much

doesn't it you not anymore king was

never too keen about this and now he's

losing his nerve it would be better for

us if he were out of the way for us

doesn't the prospect please you

very much only it's king our friends

agreed to back not me he's a great man

of the jungle

it was i who made him great and i can

make you even greater

yes

i believe you could

you ready

our crocodiles know what to do

where did she come from she came to

bring us where the shipments on its way

everything is to go as planned

right are i used to hear these men guard

the canoes

and keep us covered from this side we'll

go across the river and wait with the

rest of shenzies

only four men including king we're at

johnny and arnold and the others they

must be coming through the jungle

they do jason and these men will take

care of them

our friends won't have a chance

so

rollvac

and there's aurora

pick on the ramus

they tricked us

yep

king's helping them

so

congratulations arnold i think the

colonists made an excellent choice in

electing you their new leader thanks

commissioner johnny if it hadn't been

for you i

well i don't quite know how to say it

no need to say anything just keep

sending out that cobalt we will

when we get the new mine open we'll be

able to deliver 10 tons a week to the

government guess i better be shoving off

what's that

you
